Shen Pomegranate also took a look at the various towns along the way, the closer to Kyoto City, the more prosperous, and now to the most prosperous Kyoto City, I am naturally excited.

Zheng Erzhu saw that it was almost there, so he didn't get into the carriage again, and slowly followed the carriage into Kyoto City.

Shen Shiliu sat directly in the place where Wen Huai sat every day, there were shops on both sides of the street, and there were a lot of stalls, compared with the Anyang County she had seen, the scale here was really large.

The coachman stopped and went, and he didn't know the location of the inn, so he could only inquire and walk.

At noon, he finally arrived at the post station, Shen Shiliu saw that the address was correct, and said to the guard guarding the gate of the post station: "Little brother, I will ask you personally, does Du Xuanmo live here?" ”

The guard at the door nodded: "Lord Du Xuan Mo Du does live here, girl, ...... you?" ”

Shen Shiliu felt comfortable, the quality of Kyoto City was different, and the guards spoke politely, probably because they were afraid that they didn't know whose family members would offend people, so they were very cautious in their words.

Shen Shiliu said: "I am from his hometown, and this time Lord Du's mother is also here, I don't know where the others are now?" ”

As soon as the guard heard that it was Du Xuanmo's mother, he said, "Lord Du just came back, the girl is here for a while, I'll go and report it." "The people living in the inn are not ordinary people, and if they have not yet determined who is coming, their guards cannot let people in at will, so as not to collide with the people inside.

Shen Shiliu nodded, returned to the carriage and took Du Niangzi first, the luggage was not unloaded in a hurry, Shen Shiliu wanted to see how Du Xuanmo arranged it.

Du Xuanmo heard the guards say that the people from the family were coming, so he hurriedly came out to greet him.

When he saw Shen Shimei and Du Niangzi next to the carriage, Du Xuanmo was overjoyed.

"Son!" Du Niangzi saw Du Xuanmo come out, and hurriedly took Du Xuanmo's hand, she was thinking about it these days!

Shen Shimei stood beside Du Niangzi, Du Xuanmo was held by Du Niangzi, Du Xuanmo looked at Shen Shimei, and both of them had beautiful faces.

"Where do we live, do you have any plans?" Shen Shiliu asked Du Xuanmo, the coachman is still waiting.

Du Xuanmo said: "Live in the post station first, and the imperial court will arrange it in a few days, and then you will be able to move out of the post station." "Now his grade is not enough, so he can only live here temporarily.

Shen Shiliu nodded, beckoned Zheng Erzhu and Wen Huai to unload the luggage first, and the coachman left happily after closing the money, and Shen Shiliu began to pick up.

Shen Pomegranate brought more tools, Zheng Erzhu and Wen Huai moved a few times and finished their work, but Shen Pomegranate can't live for the time being, after all, they haven't married yet.

"I also found a place for Pomegranate, it's my acquaintance's uncle's house!" Du Xuanmo said that he had already arranged it.

Shen Shiliu was relieved, otherwise this person was unfamiliar with the place and could only go to the guest house, but the cost would be huge.

Du Niangzi settled down first, Zheng Erzhu and Wen Huai also stayed in the post house first, and Du Xuanmo sent Shen Shimei to the residence first.

Du Xuanmo's acquaintance has some origins, he is the son of the governor of the Salt Transport Division, and he is considered an official of Sesame Mung Bean in a place like Kyoto City, so when Du Xuanmo took Shen Shimei to catch it, the other party was very enthusiastic.

"You go back first, I'm fine here, you don't have to take care of me these days, I'll go to the street first and see how Kyoto City opens a store." Shen Shiliu said to Du Xuanmo.

Du Xuanmo nodded: "I will have free time after the application every day, and I will come to you when the time comes, and I will help you find if you want to open a store." ”

Shen Shiliu nodded, but she also knew that it was not easy to open a store in a place like Kyoto City, and a big place like Fengyang County still pays attention to a behind-the-scenes boss, and the behind-the-scenes boss in Kyoto City is only bigger, so she has to continue to be careful.

"You go get busy first, I'm fine." Shen Shiliu said.

Du Xuanmo had to go to the Hanlin Academy to be on duty in the afternoon, and he left in a hurry before he had time to eat.

"Girl, come in first, I've come to say hello before, I've got a room ready for you." Aunt Lin said.

Du Xuanmo of the Lin family said to Shen Shimei on the way before he came, her husband died early, Aunt Lin took a daughter to stay widowed, daughter Lin Shuang married a few years ago, but her husband died of illness, her in-laws felt that she was ominous, so they drove people back, and now there is still a chastity archway at the door of this Lin house.

"Sister Pomegranate, come with me." Lin Shuang said, he is a little older than Shen Shimei, and he is only eighteen this year, so he became a widow, and the gentleman also felt a pity when he looked at it, it was the time when a delicate flower was the most beautiful.

"Thank you aunt and sister for taking care of you." Shen Shiliu thanked him and stayed like this first.

When Lin Shuang went to the kitchen to cook in the evening, Shen Shiliu also went to help, after all, she lived in someone's house, and she didn't really want to be a guest by herself, she always had to stretch out her hand in everything, or she was really embarrassed.

"Sister Pomegranate, sit down first, how can you let you work?" Lin Shuang came over to snatch the dish that Shen Pomegranate had chosen, but Shen Pomegranate dodged it.

"Sister, just let me help you, or I'll be embarrassed to live here!" Shen Shiliu said that this Lin family is a small courtyard, and she also saw some washed clothes in the yard, and it is estimated that this mother and daughter make a living by washing clothes for others.

Lin Shuang didn't want to come over to grab it again, so she chatted with Shen Shimei.

"My sister is really a good couple, when my cousin came last time, he praised Lord Du well, saying that Lord Du can earn a way out by himself with a white body, and now don't be important to the emperor, and the future is limitless. My sister and Master Du got married in the future, and life must be better! Lin Shuang is very envious of Shen Shimei, Shen Shimei will marry a good man in the future, but she can't.

Shen Shiliu watched Lin Shuang's voice get smaller and quieter, and she guessed the pain in Lin Shuang's heart, but she didn't dare to say anything comforting, after all, she didn't live a widow's life, and she didn't understand this kind of pain, so she could only say: "I just hope that he will be successful in the future, and I will rest assured." ”

After chatting with Lin Shuang, I realized that Lin Shuang's experience was also very bumpy, she lost her father at a young age, and her aunt's family finally raised her, she looked forward to getting married, and her mother could live a few days of comfortable life. Later, she married a merchant family, although it was a small business, but she was very caring, she also lived a good life for two years, but unfortunately the good times did not last long, her husband went out to buy goods, and when he came back, he was targeted by robbers to kill people and cross goods, and her in-laws felt that she was a husband, and she failed to give birth to a boy and a half girl to her in-laws, so she was driven out, and her miserable days began.

"Women's happiness is counting on men, men are gone, my life is like this, if my father-in-law didn't kill other robbers, I might still live a comfortable life in my mother-in-law's house, unlike now, embarrass my mother and embarrass myself." Lin Shuang's whole person seemed to be shrouded in black gas, and his thoughts were dark.

Although Shen Shimei can't experience it, she also feels that Lin Shuang can't continue to be so pessimistic, the dead are dead, but the living people have to continue to live, Lin Shuang still has her mother, she still has a lot of youth, and she can't bury her future life together because of a man's death. But she can't say this now, she is afraid that Lin Shuang will think that she is showing off.

"There are a lot of ups and downs in the world, and I can't do anything for you, so I'll cook a meal for my sister tonight, I hope my sister won't dislike it." Shen Shiliu said that there are no comforting words that can heal people's hearts more than a good meal and a warm quilt.

Lin Shuang smiled, but she didn't refuse, Shen Shiliu was measured, unlike other women who persuaded her, and then after she was finished, they each returned to their husband's arms. In her words, these women just don't have a backache when they stand and talk, and if their father-in-law dies one day, can they still comfort themselves with these words?

"Cheng, sister, you are a sincere person at first glance, tomorrow my sister will lead you to buy flowers on the street!" Lin Shuang said with a smile.

The women of Kyoto City are popular to wear flowers, and along the way, Shen Pomegranate saw many women with hairpins on their heads, and some of them still held a large handful in their hands, and they didn't know what they were for.

In the evening, Shen Pomegranate showed his hand, although he didn't use his usual tools, but he didn't delay making some meals, and when the meals were served, Aunt Lin couldn't stop smiling.

The dishes are all vegetarian dishes, and the Lin family doesn't have much meat, so it's impossible to make meat dishes. But even though it is a vegetarian dish, the color and flavor are not diminished at all.

"Oh, this girl's skills are amazing, and the imperial chef in the palace can't compare to it, right?!" Aunt Lin said a word, and her tone was full of surprise.

Shen Shiliu laughed twice: "Auntie said that I am laughing, I am just a general home-cooked dish, and the imperial chef in the palace will dump me for several streets!" She is still self-aware, Aunt Lin is just praising her when she says this, she has not yet reached the point where she does not know the height of the sky.

Several people were very happy to eat at one meal, and Lin Shuang was also full of praise for Shen Pomegranate's dishes.

Shen Pomegranate was finally able to rest in bed at night, and now that she has arrived in Kyoto City, although it is only a temporary place to live, her next step is to find a piece of her own territory!

The next morning, Shen Pomegranate got up early in the morning, made breakfast lightly, ate a few bites by himself, and warmed the rest in a pot, waiting for the Lin family's mother and daughter to get up and eat.

Shen Shiliu left the Lin family and walked around the street, looking at the old lady with milk, so he stepped forward and asked, "Auntie, I want to ask where the morning market is?" ”

The eldest lady showed the way, Shen Shiliu thanked him and then went to the morning market, since he wanted to open a store here, he had to know the prices here, and the money she brought was not very much, whether she could succeed or not depends on how well she did her homework.

When he arrived at the vegetable market, Shen Pomegranate asked the price when he saw the vegetables, and the final result gave Shen Pomegranate a headache, and the price of vegetables here was almost twice as high as that of Fengyang County!
